#80 of 366: Vibration (Extended Edition), Alex Wiley

It’s amazing to me that you can be a big fan of a genre and it takes you so long to discover someone this good. The entendres aren’t on display like they are in some Weezy rhymes, but there’s a HARDness to Wiley’s delivery. He has a bit of a growl and it does WORK on this song. This is on display during this section below and in the “hype time” at 2:08.


“Now I only put out good vibrations, I don’t even see the lows, tunnel vision to the paper, I don’t really need…”

The verse starting at 2:22 is just….sustained THAT. Speed, style, you can FEEL it.

That’s a lot of CAPS I guess, but you can hear it, right? This sounds different than what you hear as “Hip Hop” now. Produced by Hippie Sabotage too, which probably explains a lot of that different sound. They are worth listening to as well. I’ve known them for longer so I’m not sure there’s stuff on the blog playlist, but check ’em out for sure.

Do something creative today. Write a poem. Draw something cute. Stretch that right-brain a little!

Be good, do good.

Physical Education teacher. There's really too much to explain in this little box. You'll just have to follow along on the blog. :)
